World’s heaviest woman Eman Ahmed dies in Abu Dhabi hospital!

Eman Ahmed, the world’s heaviest woman (weighing 500 kgs) who made news when she arrived in Mumbai earlier this year for a weight-loss surgery, passed away in Abu Dhabi on Monday.


Doctors said that she died due to complications including heart disease and kidney dysfunction. She was just 37.

Eman is originally from Alexandria, Egypt. She came to Mumbai weighing above 500 Kgs. During her course of treatment at the Saifee hospital by a team of around 20 doctors led by renowned specialist Muffazal Lakdawala, she had lost 324 Kgs. Then she headed to Abu Dhabi for further treatments.

 Hrithik Roshan couldn’t make time, but his mother Pinky Roshan and the others paid a visit to the lady and helped her out in whichever way possible. They even helped her out with money needed for the cure. Pinky Roshan had donated Rs 10 lakh for the bariatric surgery.

Ms Ahmed’s sister had alleged that her treatment in Mumbai had been far short of satisfactory and that the family had been misled. She also claimed in a secretly filmed video that doctors at Saifee were using her sister for publicity. Doctors, however, dismissed the allegations as “complete hogwash”, alleging that the woman only wanted to extend her sister’s stay at the hospital.

Dr Lakdawala, who supervised her treatment at the Saifee hospital, said the hospital did not charge “a single penny” from Ms Ahmed’s family. “We are happy that we did bring her weight down,” he had said in response to the family’s charges.

Ms Ahmed had not stepped out of her house for more than two decades due to her weight and a stroke that left her paralysed a year ago.

We offer our prayers and sincere condolences to the family of the deceased.
